Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens for hospital-acquired urinary tract infections between patients in internal medicine wards and in surgical wards .Methods A total of 586 midstream urine samples were collected from patients in the First Municipal Hospital of Qinhuangdao during January 2012 and December 2014.Vitek 2 Compact system was applied in bacteria identification and drug sensitivity tests .Excel and SPSS 11.5 software were applied for data analysis . Results A total of 661 strains were isolated , in which 404 strains were from internal medicine wards and 257 strains were from surgical wards .Escherichia coli (44.6%vs.33.1%) and Enterococcus (23.0%vs. 16.3%) infections were more common in the internal medicine wards (χ2 =8.620 and 4.309, P<0.05), while the occurrence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (4.0%vs.24.5%) was higher in surgical wards (χ2 =63.056, P <0.01).Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia strains were highly sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam, cefptetan, amikacin, imipenem, and meropenem, and the sensitivity rates were from 85% to 100.0%.The sensitivity rates of Escherichia coli to ampicillin/sulbactam, levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin were <30%, and strains from surgical wards had lower sensitivity rates to these drug than those isolated from internal medicine wards (χ2 =4.987, 4.575 and 5.359, P<0.05).The sensitivity rates of Klebsiella pneumonia isolated from internal medicine wards to ceftazidime , gentamicin and aztreonam were 68.8%, 60.6% and 69.7%, which were higher than those isolated from surgical wards (36.0%, 32.0%, and 40.0%), and the differences were of statistical significance (χ2 =6.068,4.661 and 5.115, P<0.05).Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were highly sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin, and the susceptibilities of strains isolated from surgical wards (98.4%and 96.8%) were higher than those isolated from internal medicine wards (75.0% and 81.3%) (χ2 =11.797 and 5.221, P <0.05). Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from surgical wards were also highly sensitive to cefepime (92.1%), but the sensitive rate of strains from internal medicine wards was only 37.5%, and the difference was of statistical significance (χ2 =24.696, P<0.01).Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis were sensitive to tigecycline , vancomycin and linezolid with the sensitivity rates over 95%.Except quinupristin/dalfopristin and tetracycline , the sensitivities of Enterococcus faecalis to other antibiotics were higher than Enterococcus faecium.Susceptibility of Enterococcus faecium from surgical wards (33.3%) to moxifloxacin was lower than those from internal medicine wards (70.8%), and the difference was of statistical significance (χ2 =4.629, P <0.05).Conclusion There are differences in distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens isolated from internal medicine wards and from surgical wards .

Objective To know the cognition,attitude and needs among middle-aged andaged women with urinary incontinence(UI) in communities. Methods A questionnaire survey wasconducted in 66 middle-aged and aged women with UI in two communities and the results were an-alyzed. Results Most patients lacked the knowledge of UI;UI had impact on their physical andmental heahh.Must patients wished to know about the treatment knowledge,and health education of med-ical staff was the most promising way.The mastering degree of knowledge about disease was not related tothe serious degree of disease and age,but was positively related to education degree and economic income.Conclusions We should publicize the knowledge about UI and provide health education and emotionalsupport to patients.And we should emphasize the training about UI among medical staff.

Objective:To explore the functions of cytokines and TM in the pathogenesis of acute cerebral infarction.Methods:The levels of IL-1、IL-6 、TNF and TM were detected by ELISA in 55 patients with acute cerebral infarction.Results:The levels of IL-1、IL-6 、TNF and TM were increased significantly in the patients with acute cerebral infarction in comparision with the controls ( P

Objective To compare the whole-body equivalent doses from volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and static intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for patients with cervical cancer.Methods Nine patients with cervical cancer admitted to our hospital in 2014 were included in this study.Both VMAT and IMRT were planned for each patient.Each patient's personal dose equivalent (Hp (10)) was measured using thermoluminescent dosimeters placed at the xiphoid process and glabella during IMRT and VMAT.The whole-body equivalent doses were estimated based on the results measured at the xiphoid process and compared between the VMAT and IMRT techniques.The paired t test was used for difference analysis.Results The Hp (10) values measured at the xiphoid process and glabella of every patient were lower for VMAT than for IMRT.At a prescribed dose of 50 Gy,if the mean Hp (10) values measured at the xiphoid process were considered to represent the whole-body equivalent doses,the whole-body equivalent doses for VMAT and IMRT were 364 mSv and 538 mSv,respectively.Conclusions VMAT results in a lower whole-body equivalent dose to patients compared with IMRT.The decreased whole-body equivalent dose delivered by VMAT may reduce the likelihood of a radiation-induced secondary malignancy.

Objective To analyze the pregnancy outcome of laparoscopic cervical cerclage before pregnancy, discuss the clinical value of the treatment of cervical incompetence.Methods 40 cases with cervical insufficiency during 2012.1 -2016.3 before pregnancy underwent laparoscopic ligation.All patients had a history of abortion or premature birth,and the average gestational age was 23.7 weeks.Preoperative cervical length was less than 2.5cm. The operation condition and the pregnancy outcome after operation were observed.Results The average time of oper-ation was 35.6(40.2 ±10.4)min and the amount of bleeding was 10.3(15.7 ±3.2)mL.Postoperative pregnancy cervical average length was 3.61 (4.35 ±0.52)cm.Pregnancy outcome:37 weeks of gestation and above delivery 20 cases (50.0%).34 -37 weeks 16 cases (40.0%),28 -34 weeks in 3 cases,received cesarean section,the aver-age gestational was 35.6 weeks.Compared with the preoperative abortion,the gestational week of delivery was pro-longed by 12.1 weeks.Neonatal survival in 38 cases (95.0%),1 case of gestational 28 +3 weeks premature death. Neonatal birth weight was 2 800(3 079 ±500)g;1 case (2.5%)was difficult to avoid abortion at 23 weeks of gesta-tion.Conclusion Laparoscopic pre -pregnancy cervical cerclage suture in cervix mouth,postoperative can maintain effective cervical length,prolong gestational age,improve the pregnancy outcome,can be used as effective treatment for the pregnant cerclage failure or cervical length less than 2.5cm of cervical insufficiency patients.

Objective:To study the influencing factors in the preparation of salicylic acid dropping pills , and determine the opti-mum preparation process .Methods: The environmental factors , heating temperature , matrix ratio and preparation steps of salicylic acid drop pills were observed .With pill weight difference , dissolution time and appearance quality as the indices , an orthogonal test was adopted to optimize the preparation process .Results:Salicylic acid and the matrix should be separately heated to prevent red ox-ide.The optimized preparation process of drop pills was as follows:the ratio of PEG 400 and PEG 6000 was 1∶5, the temperature of drug solution was 50℃, the dropping distance was 8 cm and the dropping rate was 70 drops per minute .Conclusion:The preparation process is simple and practicable .The pill weight difference , dissolution time and appearance quality all meet the quality require-ments.
